its also like half the price of the PS3 so all things considered thats not a bad figure for Sony there.

Isn't the ps3 sold at a loss? I don't think Sony's sales matter until there's enough of them to warrant creating a ps3 exclusive.

I also read an article somewhere say most owners of a PS3 are 30-40 while most owners of an Xbox360 are 20-30.
